I have the sensors available, so if it gets worse let me know and I'll sort you out with one.

For the record my V70 has done 195,000miles it used to do mainly motorway which means the throttle didn't wear out as fast, I know of school run mum cars getting less than 100,000 due to increased throttle use.
Do you still have any of these contactless throttle position sensors? I was considering cleaning the etm which I believe is only a temporary fix, would the contactless sensor be a permanent fix? How easy is it to do and the final question, how much would you want for the contactless throttle position sensor? Sorry I hope that isn't too many questions.
